Abstract
A method for visualizing a membrane on a retina of an eye includes recording a first image of the retina of the eye, wherein the membrane on the retina of the eye is not stained, recording a second image of the retina of the eye after the membrane on the retina of the eye has been stained, determining a first transformation such that mutually corresponding structures of the retina of the eye are located at mutually corresponding places in the second image and in the first image which was transformed with the first transformation, identifying image regions in the second image, which contain the membrane on the retina, based on the transformed first image and the recorded second image, and displaying the second image such that the identified image regions in the second image are highlighted relative to the surroundings of the identified image regions.
